California is in the process of experiencing a global warming event of crazy proportions! It has already hit Northern California, so Southern California is bracing for the worst. Northern California had wind gusts from 80 - 150 miles per hour today...with torential rain and blizzard conditions in the mountains.
Here in Southern California, in the past two months we have had firestorms, three Santa Ana Wind events, wind gusts up to 50 miles per hour in December on three separate occasions which knocked out power in Los Angeles...and now we are having torential rains after being in a severe drought since 2005. The forecast is predicting urban and foothil flooding, 30 foot ocean waves, wind gusts up to 50 mph some time tonight and mudslides.
According to the Bloomberg Report: "Office towers in San Francisco's financial district swayed with the wind earlier today, causing some occupants to feel motion sickness. At least three tractor-trailer trucks were overturned by the high winds, CBS 5 reported"

Did you see "The Day After Tomorrow"? This feels just like that movie! This just doesn't happen in Southern California. I guess the weather is going to be extreme from now on...it is just an inconvenient truth.
